Agreed. I'll do that, thank you. Ben Tibbetts 16:16, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Roman Numerals

I changed IV to 4 in regards to certain persons' inabilities to read roman numerals. Was there any specific reason it was IV to begin with? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 65.185.170.172 (talk) 19:06, 15 March 2007 (UTC).

[edit] List of languages is useless

I am not sure why there is a list of languages attached to this article. This article is not about languages and an undifferentiated list like this imparts no information.

To confuse matters further, the list contains entries such as Devanāgarī which developed in the last 1000 years, and "Aztec" (which links to the Nahuatl language!) who developed their so-called writing system even later. In fact, all the Mesoamerican writing systems were rather late entries, the earliest being dated to something like 600 BC.

So, I have decided to be bold and delete the list. MapMaster (talk) 01:20, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
